THIS SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 23 
RECEPTIONS

1-4pm Eastern

We'd love to see you at our reception for both Library 11 and for Part 1 of Near Dwellers, SLQS' Walking Together.
A sneak peak - 
Christianna Potter Hannum will give a talk about her work and Emily Hubley's animations
SLQS and Near Dwellers partner, Fawn Daphne Plessner (the Tree Museum), will attend virtually, and we'll have some lovely things from Succession Fermentory and Deisy's Cakes. Come join us!

 
Summer 2023 - Summer 2024
Near Dwellers is a year-long, multi-part project hosted by The Tree Museum and Street Road Artists Space that will explore understandings of the human/animal divide: programming will include exhibitions, new scholarship, and public participation components, opening up new and multi-faceted ways of understanding animals and our relationships with them.
This Summer, Near Dwellers launches with work by SLQS and Spirit of Saigon, filmed in Walthamstow Marshes, London. 
​

SLQS (Sarah Le Quang Sang)
Walking Together 
Aug 4 – Sept 30, 2023
Sarah Le Quang Sang, aka SLQS, and her film, Walking Together, opens Near Dwellers, our year-long inquiry on human and animal relationships. Her film provocatively and poetically situates us in the midst of a walk with rider and horse as they move through the interstitially urban lands of Walthamstow Marshes, in London, United Kingdom.

​About us: ​Developed as an evolution of a family real estate business, Street Road Artists' Space hosts projects that relate directly to the problematic, capital-driven activity which produced its possibility. Challenges to received wisdom about private property ownership, especially how this relates to social relationships, are the focus.
 
Located at the crossroads of Street Road and Gap Newport Pike (Routes 926 and 41), our name adopts the richly textured toponym by which we are located: etymologically 'Street Road' derives from the Roman ‘via strata’, or ‘paved road’, thus encoding histories of human-land intertwinings, particularly human impulses to map, posess, and constrain the earth.
 
The 5-acre site comprises outdoor works, many ongoing, an exhibition space in a renovated 1930s cottage, and occasional projects in two other on-site buildings - an abandoned former mushroom house and an industrial pole barn. In an area that lies between rural farmland, Amish country, horse country, land preservation efforts, towns impoverished by big-box proliferation, and encroaching suburbanization growing out from the cities of Philadelphia, Wilmington and Lancaster, Street Road is a laboratory for the consideration of humans’ multiplicitous relationships with land - past, current and future.

A word about 'here':
We acknowledge that we are on the ancestral lands of the Lenape, original people of the mid-Atlantic area, forced west by British and US governments. Most Delaware Indian tribe descendants are now located in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. Lenni Lenapes in Pennsylvania are not officially recognized as tribes by the United States, though an estimated 5000 Lenape Nation descendants live in the Delaware River area. We pay respects to the Lenape people both past and present. Please consider the many legacies of violence, displacement and settlement that form part of our collective histories. While increased public recognition of these legacies and processes of redress such as Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission are positive steps, concrete focus on return of land and land rights remains a distant horizon.
